Observer.

The Board of Managers elected by the COM
mittee OF thirty met persuant TO call on Dec.
23d, and adopted constitution and by laws.
The name chosen for the new organization is
The Southern Oregon Agricultural Associa-
ton. The next meeting will be held in May
when the annual election of officers will take
place and the executive committee be elected
who will be empowered and ordered to push
forward resolutely and Immediately the works
necessary to establish an agricultural and
mechanical fair at Roseburg next fall. This
is stride forward in the right direction and
in our opinion is the first CLEAN of bright
future for agriculture in this county. This
movement if properly sustained will create
and foster an interchange of ideas, thorough
cultivation of the soil, pride in stock; the
bringing up and patronage Of home manufacto-
ries. The pernicious and bankrupting prac-
tice Of importing everything we wear, many
things we cat, inferior to our ownl and every
implement used in agriculture must be aban-
doned ii we prosper. Therefore let every
farmer assist the Board of Managers when
the proper time comes, and don't leave them a
'forlorn hope" fighting your cause alone.

hence they went on strike. To prevent
trouble the companies have two policemen on
each car to go TO the end Of the routes. But
the employees have been rarading and congre-
gallng near the companies shops and the
starting point for the cars and tried to induce
the new men TO quit work and those that
would not do SO were pulled and driven from
The cars by the strikers. Last Monday the
strikers marched up Sutter street and when
near the starting point for the cars James NJ
Cord Supt. Of the Sutter street line ordered
them 10 halt but they kept on, to protect his
his own person, the property the company
and the new man, he and his men fred upon
the strikers and about forty shots were ex-
changed. One man was shot in the brain and
has since died. and others were wounded
slightly. Before this strike eliminated in
blood the company's property had been in
Jured, some of the new men were bruised by
missiles thrown at them and passengers have |
had their necks and faces cut by pieces of
glass from the broken windows of the cars. |
1t is difficult to say how it will end as both |
sides are determined TO win. All the injury |
done to the companies property and the new
men by the hoodlums the strikers are blamed |
with. $2.5o per day for twelve hours is little
enough pay for the work and exposure
These strikes will still further stagnatc business
in this city. AS usual the other morning they /
had man for breakfast. These murders are
a little too frequent for the orphan, but as he
smiles ''childlike and bland" on every man he
meets and keeps his mouth shut, perhaps he's
safe.
wish you and all friends a Merry Christ
mas and Happy New Year.

of the Y. ID. B. out hunting for an echo. II
is not musical to sec men in the mountains
hunting game, range or gold, but hunting an
echo is prospecting for something new. The
Yankee Doodle man gave lis lively diserta-

chap had made diamonds and was uow going
to make gold We think he could do bet

but no water with which TO mine it. The
gold maker has been here and done his part,
row if some fellow will give us enough water we
can soon square upwith the grub stalker. As it
is we can't do anything but so hunting.

In recent discourse Rev. |. ID. Driver, of
East Portland, speaking Of virtuous course
OF lie being open to all men, said: ''But few
can be rich and fewer still be wise, but all can
be good and right. Col IngersolI, on the
labor question, recently said: Five men
worked in shoe store; each made * cents
per day more than expenses. One spent his
evenings with a respectable family in social
converse with their pretty daughter; the ether
four in a saloon. In two or three years the
one saved UP enough to buy nice little home
and got married. In two or three years more
he could hire horse and buggy and take his
wife out riding. The other four went to saloon
and passed resolutions that there was a con
fiict between labor and capital This is fair
statement of principles involved even on
higher plane and runs thus Col. Ineersoll and
four others advocate temperance and morality;
one OF them practices what he teaches and
builds up a character that is solid and pure.
Col Ingcrsol and the other three stultify
themselves, get drunk and by violation Of
their own teachings are self-condemned. In
process of time all five die, the one who by
self denial and the conscientious practice of
what he believed and taught, is qualified for
the association Of the pure and good spiritual
home. Col. Ingersoll and the other three go
to he'll and pass resolutions that there is con-
fict between justice and grace. ."-Oregonian
